🧵 DMC Etoile –C738

DMC Etoile (from the French “étoile” – star) is a mouliné thread made from a cotton and polyester blend. It is used to add an elegant shimmer to various embroidery techniques. The thread gently catches and reflects the light, making embroidery look more textured and vivid.

Its separable 6-strand structure lets you adjust the thread thickness and achieve shimmer at different intensities. It is softer than metallic threads and much more comfortable to work with.

🧶 Thread Quality & Structure

Unlike classic mouliné, DMC Etoile stands out for the fine metallic (lurex) fibers woven into it, which give the thread a soft, elegant shine. Although it has a durable, lightly fuzzy texture, it is soft and far easier to work with than many metallic threads.

🪡 Where Is It Used?

DMC Etoile can be used on its own or combined with other threads in different embroidery techniques. It looks especially elegant in designs where you want sparkle (stars, snowflakes, Christmas and special-occasion details, etc.).
